I installed Fedora core 4. This distro has been superb . First I thought "lemme install it just for testing afterwards just remove it". But now I decided to stick to Fedora core 4 .The looks are cool. And for programming they included Eclipse with cdt plugin!I installed xmms using yum package manager.

The group of skec 2003 cse has got some good responses. It has 20 members. I improved the design of sree kavitha engineering college cse group website. I added college photo and also some of the tour photos.The message count is increasing. I hope the site ranks well.

Today evening I went to my senior "madhu latha's " house. I got a problem while installing linux.I was installing suse linux 9

I never know that there was a other linux hidden in that same system after I installed suse linux that system I saw that in other place /dev/hda7 there was a other suse! So I tried to remove that by fdiskBut what happened was the booot loader was installed and /boot was created in that /dev/hda7 which I deleted . so I messed up using command line and deleted existing partitions and had to re install the total linux ! I gave that work to her and I guess she could install it successfully. I will know tomorrow.

use the command #adsl-setup

Give ur username and password when prompted

Type #/sbin/ifup ppp0 to to bring up your xDSL link
